Mario’s been hard at work in the studio, preparing his next album, and working on new music. The 25-year-old crooner invited fans to the studio, revealing he’s looking for “feedback” and a “deeper connection.” With an intimate party touch, he served hors d’oeuvres and cider, as the fans received the chance to discuss face-to-face with Mario about his latest project.
